New GenerationsGet ConnectedPyry & Ani Winters support pagePyry and Ani Winter are Finns serving in Turku, on Finland's west coast. Recognizing future generations may not find God in the established church, they are focusing on disciple-making movements. These are intended to inspire believers to share Jesus within their social spheres and consistently live the Kingdom ethic.God has given Pyry and Ani a deep love for people, and crystalised their vision for making disciples who make disciples throughout Finland and to the whole of Europe. This led to the establishment of a robust Finnish disciple making network, including active teams in seven cities across the country. Everyday Finns are being trained to make disciples within their relational networks. The Winters provide coaching and training to leaders in Austria, Portugal, and Slovenia. God regularly provides new opportunities for further expansion of the ministry vision.

Chris Galanos is the Founding Pastor of Experience Life Church in Lubbock, TX, which is now a network of many churches meeting across the nation. He graduated from Southwestern Seminary in 2006 and then started Experience Life in his living room in the Spring of 2007. In the first 10 years of Experience Life’s history, God allowed the church to help over 13,000 people commit their lives to Christ & baptize over 7,000 people. Toward the end of the first 10 years, the Lord began to give Chris & the eLife Leadership Team the vision of seeing 1,000,000 disciples made in the next 10 years. They knew that their strategy for making disciples would have to change. The story of Experience Life’s transition from a “megachurch” model to a “multiplication” model is detailed in his new book, From Megachurch to Multiplication. In the last few years, he and his team have started over 25 churches in 12 states, launched over 200+ Discovery Groups with streams down to the 2nd and even 4th generation, and trained over 700 disciple-makers & church planters across the country (even several in other countries).

Harry is the President of New Generations and sits on the Board of Directors. Prior to founding New Generations, Harry was responsible for launching the church planting division for Cityteam International in 1996, re-envisioning the team around movements in 2005, and shepherding the vision, as the indigenous leaders catalyzed over 120 movements, encompassing 50k new churches and over 1.5 million new disciples in the next twelve years. After such exponential growth, the Board of Cityteam voted to ‘set apart’ the church planting division as of July 2018 to become a separate organization called New Generations.
